"Brothers in the city! Whoever sells your life is not selling! Our army of England needs you too! ”

"As long as you surrender us, there are countless beauties and gold!"

"We will be a family in the future, if you resist now, your queen will not spare you in the future!"

"As long as you surrender us, we will not take a single wool from you!"

"If you resist, we'll let you know what it means to slaughter a city! …………”

The Earl of Wellington stood in the distance, watching the somewhat obscene soldier shout loudly.

Because it was far away, he didn't hear the lewd man's words of persuasion, but when he looked carefully, the soldiers at the head of the city were talking to each other one by one, and it was very lively!

After careful inducement and coercion by the lewd man, in less than half an hour, the raised suspension bridge was lowered by the Scots.

Soon, an old man in his fifties walked out of the suspension bridge, and his clothes were also very exquisite, his snow-white hair and beard were combed cleanly, and the whole person looked very energetic.

He was followed by dozens of soldiers pushing a few carts of sacks before coming out. And most of these dozens of soldiers are old, weak, sick and disabled, down to thirteen-year-old dolls, old men in their forties and fifties, dressed in the skin of soldiers, without the appearance of soldiers.

Seeing that it was an old man, and dozens of old, weak, sick and disabled, the Earl of Wellington, who was originally a little cautious, boldly came to the city gate with more than a hundred guards.

"Your Excellency! I'm a member of the Handington Presbyterian Church, Tesla. Beslaka, on behalf of the inhabitants of Huntington, I would like to welcome His Excellency the General! ”

"Mr. Tesla is so gracious! What a deep sense of righteousness! ”

"Here are some gold coins prepared by the inhabitants of Huntington for generals and warriors to treat you guests from afar!"

"How gracious, I'm the Earl of Wellington, the commander of this army!"

Mr. Truss's tone was very cautious and respectful, and he pointed to several carts of cloth bags behind him.

The Earl of Wellington couldn't help but shrink his eyes, tilt his neck, and look at the carts of sacks behind him.

"I just hope that Lord Earl will keep his promises, these are some of our respects, and we will send the rest in a few days when we raise them!"

"It's five thousand pounds worth of francs, and since most of them are Aiju and River, it's a burden!" Mr. Councillor's tone was a little helpless, after all, Huntington was far away from commerce, it was a relatively backward city, and it could only dominate Scotland.

Because of the long-term alliance between Scotland and France, there is a lot of French currency in the territory, and Scotland does not have centralized coinage rights like England, and the monetary system in the territory is extremely chaotic, and the silver content cannot be said.

At that time, 100 copper coins were equivalent to one franc of silver, called "River", and were worth a pound of silver. The large silver coin "Aiju" with a denomination of 3 francs and the gold coin with a denomination of 10 francs, Pistol were the most commonly used currencies. Among them, there are also currencies of "double aiju", "half pistoor", and "double pistoor". Because of the relatively high silver content and the strength of the country, the currency of France was widely used by Europa merchants.

"Don't bother, Mr. Councillor, we'll pick it up ourselves!"

The Earl of Wellington hurriedly excused himself, as if he was a little sorry.

"But Lord Earl, didn't you promise not to take a single wool from us?"

"Really? When did I say it! This must have been miscommunicated! ”

When he saw that the old gentleman's face suddenly turned pale, as miserable as the snow in winter, the earl's words took another turn, and he said softly.

"However, since someone has spread it like this, and everyone believes that I said it, then I will keep this promise!"

"Thank you so much! Dear Earl, may God bless you! ”

Mr. Tesla was nervous and excited, and his body was a little overwhelmed.

"That's it! Mr. Councillor, please come out quickly! ”

"What?" The old gentleman was a little incredulous.

"Mr. Councillor, I promise not to take a single wool from you, so all you citizens of Huntington come out!"

"We won't hurt you, but sir, you have to tell the citizens that you can't bring a copper coin out, or you will bear the consequences!"

Looking at the Earl of Wellington's determined look and unquestioning tone, Mr. Councillor withdrew his words back into his stomach.

People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads! Looking at the frightened soldier behind him, he knew that there was no right to bargain.

In desperation, the old councillor had no choice but to go back and inform the citizens of Huntington.

Fortunately, Mr. Truss's prestige was quite high, and in less than two hours, more than 10,000 citizens in the entire city of Huntington left their homes, and the family dragged their families outside the city to tremble.

"Lads! Be careful, don't smash other people's things, don't touch the mansions of nobles, and most importantly, don't take a single piece of wool from other people! You know? ”

Mr. Count spoke loudly to the officers behind him, emphasizing his orders.

"Follow your orders, honorable Earl!" The officers were very happy to have this opportunity to make a fortune, and their voices were particularly powerful.

According to the Earl of Wellington's plan, all the light cavalry and heavy cavalry went to search, and more than 400 knights were left with him to watch over the citizens of Huntington.

The treasures obtained by the searchers had to leave seven floors, four of which belonged to the Earl of Wellington and the knights, and the other three to the Duke of Edward.

The soldiers rushed into Huntington, with the gates wide open, like wolves.

Scotland, Edinburgh, Lindgow, the four ministers and Queen Mary were all gathered to wait for the French ambassador, Marshall. Wojsel.

Just when everyone was waiting impatiently, a sturdy figure walked over, with a pot-bellied figure, a tall body, and sparse hair, this was his first impression on everyone.

"The Ambassador of France - Marshall. Baron Woisel has arrived! The palace guards sang aloud.

"Good morning! Your Majesty the Queen Mother, Lord Regent, and all of you! ”

Yes, the Queen Mary and her ministers had been discussing how to defend the capital of Edinburgh until French reinforcements arrived.

"Good morning! Your Excellency Ambassador! I think you already know what we're doing! ”

Queen Marie's words were full of pride, her father and brother were both ministers valued by the King of France, and her family was deeply rooted in France.

It can be said that in addition to the French royal family, only their Guise family is the most powerful.

"Yes! Your Majesty, I deeply sympathize with what has happened to your country! ”

"So, I don't know how you, as an ally, can help?"

Queen Mary's words were very direct, asking questions one by one, without the slightest concern about his identity as an ambassador.

"I have sent someone to inform His Majesty the King of Paris late at night, and I think His Majesty will definitely send reinforcements, and for now your country only needs to hold on until the reinforcements arrive!"
